Independent Work Glossary
Discovery Call
A conversation used to clarify fit before committing to a proposal or scope.
What it means
A discovery call should clarify the problem, decision process, constraints, timing, stakeholders, and next step. It is a qualification tool, not a promise to solve every problem live.
